Sincere smile and piercing gaze of Kyrgyz residents in the lens of a Lebanese photographer

Says photographer Omar Reda (Omar Reda):

Kyrgyzstan is the hidden pearl of Central Asia. When you visit rural areas, you will be enchanted by the beauty of the scenery. Green hills and mountains are everywhere: it's like walking through Windows desktop wallpaper.

These magical landscapes may be the secret of the cheerfulness of the Kyrgyz people. Wherever I went, I was always greeted with a happy smile, despite the harsh lifestyle of the nomads. Another unique feature of the Kyrgyz is their bright sparkling eyes, which surprised me every time I looked at the faces of the locals. They reflect the innocence and modesty of these people.

Kyrgyzstan is a place that everyone should visit. Here horses gallop through gorgeous green fields, these are animated landscapes by artists that you see in museums or in hotel lobbies. As soon as you leave, you will immediately want to come back and stay here for life.
